 Bioinformatics & Systems Biology: Network science applications in genomics and proteomics

Bioinformatics and Systems Biology leverage network science to study complex biological systems. Applications include analyzing genomic and proteomic data, mapping gene-protein interactions, and uncovering pathways in disease or cellular functions. These approaches provide insights into biological networks, aiding in drug discovery, personalized medicine, and understanding life processes at a systems level.


Applications in Genomics:

  1. Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs):

    • Identify relationships between genes, understanding how they regulate each other.
    • Uncover mechanisms behind diseases caused by gene mutations or dysregulation.
  2. Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS):

    • Analyze connections between genetic variations and diseases using network-based methods.
    • Reveal clusters of genes associated with particular traits or conditions.
  3. Pathway Mapping:

    • Discover and analyze biological pathways, understanding their roles in health and disease.

Applications in Proteomics:

  1. Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) Networks:

    • Map interactions between proteins to understand their roles in cellular functions.
    • Detect key proteins (hubs) critical for processes like signal transduction or structural integrity.
  2. Functional Modules:

    • Use clustering to group proteins with similar functions, helping interpret large datasets.
  3. Disease Biomarkers:

    • Identify proteins or interactions unique to specific diseases for diagnostics or therapeutic targets.

Benefits of Network Science:

  • Reveals system-wide interactions rather than isolated elements.
  • Supports personalized medicine by tailoring treatments based on individual network profiles.
  • Enhances drug discovery, identifying targets and predicting drug effects.

Network science transforms genomic and proteomic data into actionable insights, helping decode the intricate web of life.

Global Lighthouse Network

Smart, sustainable manufacturing: 3 lessons from the Global Lighthouse Network Launched in 2018, when more than 70% of factories struggled to scale digital transformation beyond isolated pilots, the Global Lighthouse Network set out to identify the world’s most advanced production sites and create a shared learning journey to up-level the global manufacturing community. In the past seven years, the network has grown from 16 to 201 industrial sites in more than 30 countries and 35 sectors, including the latest cohort of 13 new sites. This growing community of organizations is setting new standards for operational excellence, leveraging advanced technologies to drive growth, productivity, resilience and environmental sustainability. But what exactly is a Global Lighthouse and what has the network achieved? What is the Global Lighthouse Network? The Global Lighthouse Network is a community of operational facilities and value chains that harness digital technologies at scale to ac...

Multi-Modal Data

Multi-Task Federated Split Learning Across Multi-Modal Data with Privacy Preservation With the advancement of federated learning (FL), there is a growing demand for schemes that support multi-task learning on multi-modal data while ensuring robust privacy protection, especially in applications like intelligent connected vehicles. Traditional FL schemes often struggle with the complexities introduced by multi-modal data and diverse task requirements, such as increased communication overhead and computational burdens. In this paper, we propose a novel privacy-preserving scheme for multi-task federated split learning across multi-modal data (MTFSLaMM). Our approach leverages the principles of split learning to partition models between clients and servers, employing a modular design that reduces computational demands on resource-constrained clients. To ensure data privacy, we integrate differential privacy to protect intermediate data and employ homomorphic encryption to safeguard client m...

Intelligent visual question answering in TCM education: An innovative application of IoT and multimodal fusion This paper proposes an innovative Traditional Chinese Medicine Ancient Text Education Intelligent Visual Question Answering System ( TCM-VQA IoTNet ), which integrates Internet of Things (IoT) technology with multimodal learning to achieve a deep understanding and intelligent question answering of both the images and textual content of traditional Chinese medicine ancient texts. The system utilizes the VisualBERT model for multimodal feature extraction, combined with Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) to process time-series data from IoT sensors, and employs an attention mechanism to optimize feature fusion, dynamically adjusting the question answering strategy. Experimental evaluations on standard datasets such as VQA v2.0, CMRC 2018, and the Chinese Traditional Medicine Dataset demonstrate that TCM-VQA IoTNet achieves accuracy rates of 72.7%, 69.%, and 75.4% respectively, with F1-...
